Last Minute Holiday Gifting
with Olema and The Perfect Provenance

You made the list, you checked it twice, but no matter how much planning you put into the holidays there’s always the adrenaline rush that comes with last minute gifting. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! 

At Olema, we love gifting wine but we also love the hunt for the ideal hostess gift, gifts for her, or gifts for him. One of our favorite local shops is Napa Valley’s The Perfect Provenance, where founder Lisa Lori’s passion for travel and art in all forms is beautifully curated through fashion, fragrance and home décor. 

We first met Lisa through our friends at Operation Smile, an organization that is committed to providing patients with health that lasts through life-saving cleft surgeries and comprehensive care, helping them to better breathe, eat, speak and live lives of greater quality and confidence. Lisa and her family have raised more than $3 million for Operation Smile through fundraising, advocacy and now The Perfect Provenance’s Smile Collection, products exclusively available at her stores and online with a portion of sales going directly to Operation Smile. 

Lisa shares with us her favorite last minute holiday gift suggestions that pair very nicely with wine below. A few special items are  sure to put a smile on your face by giving back; all items can be found in her Napa Valley and Tiburon stores, and online.
